    St. Mary’s College of Maryland, established in 1840, is a Maryland public liberal arts college in the United States and is designated as a Public Honors College (the only one in the state of Maryland and one of only a few around the U.S.). St. Mary’s College of Maryland – today’s four-year, liberal arts college – came into existence (on paper only) by an act of the Maryland State Board of Higher Education in 1966. The predecessor institution was St. Mary’s Seminary Junior College (1949-1968), and before that it was St. Mary’s Female Seminary Junior College (1927-1949). For roughly the first 100 years (1840-1937) the head of the institution was called a “principal.” When the school received accreditation as a junior college and became part of the Maryland state budget in 1937, the term “principal” was changed to “president.” The campus borders the St. Mary’s River. St. Mary’s College was designed as a “living monument” to the first settlers of St. Mary’s City, which was the first capital of Maryland and the fourth oldest permanent settlement in British North America, founded in 1634. In early 2006, St. Mary’s joined the University of Maryland Academic Telecommunications System (UMATS), which interconnects the University System of Maryland with several other networks, including the Internet and Internet2 networks. St. Mary’s College has three different sailing teams on campus, a sailing club, and a windsurfing club. Keelboats Dinghies St. Mary’s College of Maryland has a long history of sailing championships.
